So this Aphex Twin recording has been floating around the internet for decades. Live performance (back in the good ol' days when Richard used to actually play live, not just dj) from Roskilde Festival in Denmark in 1997, as broadcast on Swedish National Radio.
I saw a recent post on Dark Circle Room (here, where you can download the original tracks that I used for my remaster-
darkcircleroom4.blogspot.com/2...e-festival.html) where it is described as the complete performance as opposed to some other versions that have been around for years.
So I downloaded it. The audio from that original broadcast is really good- stereo board feed combined with stereo audience mics for applause, the same way I do all my recordings. And while it does sound very good, once I popped it into my DAW, I saw and heard that it really needed some help. It had a very weak low end and sounded just kinda lifeless, like it had no spark in it at all.
So then I fixed it- pumped some low end back into it, brought some excitement back to the overall sound, did some trickery with the phase and the panning, beefed up the audience sounds a bit.
